CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application claims the benefit under 35 USC 119(a) of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2015-0125669 filed on Sep. 4, 2015, with the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.

BACKGROUND

1. Field

The following description relates to a multilayer electronic component and a board having the same.

2. Description of Related Art

Currently, a prominent technical trend in the area of devices such as power modules and communications modules is system integration. In accordance with the miniaturization of and implementation of high levels of performance in electronic devices, a driving frequency of devices, such as power modules and communications modules, has been gradually increased, and thus, a technology allowing for high levels of integration in circuit components, including active elements and passive elements, has been developed.

In accordance with this trend, demand for high-voltage, high-capacitance multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) has increased. In particular, multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) having various levels of capacitance are desired in order to realize a platform of a highly integrated power module. However, most MLCCs are manufactured in a state in which capacitance thereof is standardized, such that MLCCs according to the related art only provide limited capacitance.

For example, in the case of existing MLCCs, it is difficult to implement a specific capacitance with just one MLCC. Therefore, one MLCC may be used, or two or more MLCCs may be used in series or in parallel, depending on the amount of capacitance required in an application to which the MLCC is applied.

However, in most cases, a specific capacitance required for an application may not be satisfied. Particularly, because operational characteristics of the overall power module may be significantly altered by a small capacitance error under a high-frequency operating conditions, demand for a variable MLCC having a variable capacitance has increased.

Hereinafter, a multilayer electronic component according to an embodiment, particularly, a multilayer ceramic capacitor will be described, but the multilayer electronic component is not limited thereto.

In addition, directions of a ceramic body will be defined in order to clearly describe exemplary embodiments in the present disclosure. L, W and T illustrated in the accompanying drawings refer to a length direction (L), a width direction (W), and a thickness direction (T), respectively. Here, the thickness direction is the same as a stacking direction in which dielectric layers are stacked.

Referring to FIGS. 1 through 4, a multilayer capacitor 100 according to an embodiment includes a ceramic body 110; a voltage control terminal 131, an input terminal 132, and an output terminal 133.

The ceramic body 110 is formed by stacking first and second dielectric layers 111 and 112 along the thickness direction T and then sintering the stacked first and second dielectric layers, and adjacent first or second dielectric layers 111 or 112 may be integrated so that boundaries therebetween are not readily apparent without a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Internal electrodes are formed on each of the first and second dielectric layers 111 and 112. A shape of the ceramic body 110 is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, hexahedral.

Further, in the present embodiment, for convenience of explanation, upper and lower surfaces of the ceramic body 110 will be defined as first and second surfaces 1 and 2. Both surfaces of the ceramic body 110 extending within W-T plane are defined as third and fourth surfaces 3 and 4, and both surfaces of the ceramic body 110 extending within the L-T plane are defined as fifth and sixth surfaces 5 and 6.

The first or second dielectric layer 111 or 112 contains a ceramic material having high permittivity, such as a barium titanate (BaTiO₃)-based ceramic powder. However, the material of the first and second dielectric layers 111 and 112 is not limited thereto as long as sufficient capacitance may be obtained. In addition, the first or second dielectric layer 111 or 112 may further contain various ceramic additives such as transition metal oxides or carbides, a rare earth element, magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al) or other metals, an organic solvent, a plasticizer, a binder, or a dispersant, or any combination thereof, in addition to the ceramic powder, in order to obtain a desired capacitance. Although the first and second dielectric layers 111 and 112 may be formed of the same material, the first and second dielectric layers 111 and 112 are not limited thereto. If necessary, the first dielectric layer may be formed of different materials from those of the second dielectric layer.

The ceramic body 110 includes a first capacitor part C_(c) positioned in an upper portion thereof, having constant capacitance, and a second capacitor part C_(v) positioned in a lower portion thereof and having variable capacitance. In this case, the first and second capacitor parts may have the same thickness or different thicknesses as needed.

In addition, a buffer layer 115 on which an internal electrode is not formed is interposed between the first and second capacitor parts, and cover layers 113 and 114 are disposed on upper and lower portions of the ceramic body 110 in the thickness direction. The buffer layer 115 and the cover layers 113 and 114 have the same structure as the first or second dielectric layer 111 or 112 of the first or second capacitor part C_(v) except that the internal electrode is not formed thereon.

First and second internal electrodes 121 and 122 of the first capacitor part, which are electrodes having different polarities from each other, are alternately disposed to face each other with respective ceramic sheets forming the first dielectric layer 111 interposed therebetween. A lateral end portion of the first internal electrode 121 and a lateral end portion of the second internal electrode 122 is exposed to the third surface 3 and the fourth surfaces 4 of the ceramic body 110, respectively. Here, the first and second internal electrodes 121 and 122 are electrically insulated from each other by the first dielectric layer 111 interposed therebetween.

Third and fourth internal electrodes 123 and 124 of the second capacitor part, which are electrodes having different polarities from each other, are alternately disposed to face each other with respective ceramic sheets forming the second dielectric layer 112 interposed therebetween. A lateral end portion of the third internal electrode 123 and a lateral end portion of the fourth internal electrode 124 is exposed to the third surface 3 and the fourth surface 4 of the ceramic body 110, respectively. Here, the third and fourth internal electrodes 123 and 124 are electrically insulated from each other by the second dielectric layer 112 interposed therebetween.

In addition, the first to fourth internal electrodes 121 to 124 are formed of a conductive metal, for example, silver (Ag), palladium (Pd), platinum (Pt), nickel (Ni), and copper (Cu), or any combination thereof. However, the material of the first to fourth internal electrodes 121 to 124 is not limited thereto. Further, the first to fourth internal electrodes 121 to 124 may be formed by printing a conductive paste on the first or second dielectric layer 111 or 112. In this case, as a printing method, a screen printing method, or a gravure printing method, may be used. However, the printing method is not limited thereto. Additionally, the number of stacked first and second internal electrodes 121 and 122 and the number of stacked third and fourth internal electrodes 123 and 124 may be the same as or different from each other, as desired.

The voltage control terminal 131 is formed on the third surface 3 of the ceramic body 110. The voltage control terminal 131 includes a first body portion 131 a and a first band portion 131 b. The first body portion 131 a is a portion formed on the third surface 3 of the ceramic body 110. The first body portion 131 a is electrically connected to the lateral end portions of the first and third internal electrodes 121 and 123 exposed to the third surface 3 of the ceramic body 110 to thereby be connected to the first and second capacitor parts in series.

The first band portion 131 b is a band portion extending from the first body portion 131 a along the first and second surfaces 1 and 2 and along the fifth and sixth surfaces 5 and 6 of the ceramic body 110. The first band portion 131 b serves as a mounting surface of the multilayer capacitor 100 and increases adhesive strength of the voltage control terminal 131 to the ceramic body 110.

The input terminal 132 is disposed in a location corresponding to that of the first capacitor part C_(c) on the fourth surface 4 of the ceramic body 110. The input terminal 132 includes a second body portion 132 a and a second band portion 132 b. The second body portion 132 a is formed on an upper portion of the fourth surface 4 of the ceramic body 110 (towards the second surface 2). The second body portion 132 a is electrically connected to the lateral end portions of the second internal electrodes 122 exposed to the fourth surface 4 of the ceramic body 110.

The second band portion 132 b is a band portion extending from the second body portion 132 a along a portion of the second surface 2 and portions of the fifth and sixth surfaces 5 and 6 of the ceramic body 110. The second band portion 132 b serves as the mounting surface of the multilayer capacitor 100 and increases adhesive strength of the input terminal 132 to the ceramic body 110.

The output terminal 133 disposed at a location of the fourth surface 4 of the ceramic body corresponding to the second capacitor part. The output terminal 133 includes a third body portion 133 a and a third band portion 133 b.

The third body portion 133 a is a portion formed on a lower portion of the fourth surface 4 of the ceramic body 110 (towards the first surface 1). The third body portion 133 a is electrically connected to end portions of the fourth internal electrodes 124 exposed to the fourth surface 4 of the ceramic body 110.

The third band portion 133 b is a band portion extending from the third body portion 133 a along a portion of the first surface 1 and portions of the fifth and sixth surfaces 5 and 6 of the ceramic body 110. The third band portion 133 b serves as the mounting surface of the multilayer capacitor 100 and increases adhesive strength of the output terminal 133 to the ceramic body 110.

In addition, the voltage control terminal 131, the input terminal 132, and the output terminal 133 are formed of a conductive metal, for example, silver (Ag), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), or any combination thereof. The voltage control terminal 131, the input terminal 132, and the output terminal 133, as described above, may be formed by applying a conductive paste prepared by adding glass frit to a conductive metal powder and then sintering the applied conductive paste, but the method of forming the voltage control terminal 131, the input terminal 132, and the output terminal 133 is not limited thereto. Further, plating layers may be formed on the voltage control terminal 131, the input terminal 132, and the output terminal 133, respectively. The plating layers increase adhesive strength between the multilayer capacitor 100 and a circuit board at the time of mounting the multilayer capacitor 100 onto a circuit board using solder. The plating layers may include, for example, nickel (Ni) plating layers formed on the voltage control terminal 131, the input terminal 132, and the output terminal 133, respectively, and tin (Sn) plating layers formed on the nickel plating layers, but the plating layers are not limited thereto.

In the multilayer capacitor according to an embodiment, the internal electrodes are disposed using a serial connection method, such that the multilayer capacitor may operate as a structure in which two multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) are equivalently connected to each other in series.

Referring to FIG. 5, in the multilayer capacitor 100, the first capacitor part C_(c) having a constant capacitance C_(C), and the second capacitor part C_(v) having a variable capacitance C_(V), are connected to each other in series. The first capacitor part C_(c) includes the first and second electrodes 121 and 122. The second capacitor part C_(v) includes the third and fourth internal electrodes 123 and 124. A voltage Vcon is applied to the third and fourth internal electrodes 123 and 124 to control the variable capacitance of the second capacitor part C_(v). A total capacitance C_(T) between the input terminal 132 and the output terminal 133 may be represented by the following Equation 1.

$\begin{matrix} {C_{T} = \frac{C_{V} \cdot C_{C}}{C_{V} + C_{C}}} & \left\lbrack {{Equation}\mspace{14mu} 1} \right\rbrack \end{matrix}$

For example, when a control voltage Vcon applied to the voltage control terminal 131 is increased, the capacitance C_(V) of the third and fourth internal electrodes 123 and 124 decreases proportionately or decreases according to variation rates by a floating voltage increased in a lower leg. In this case, the total capacitance C_(T) is similarly decreased according to Equation 1. Here, the constant capacitance C_(C) is larger than the variable capacitance C_(V).

Therefore, since the multilayer capacitor as described above implements various levels of capacitance by only changing the control voltage Vcon, a flexible circuit and a platform may be realized with a high degree of freedom.

The multilayer capacitor automatically implements a self-balanced control function even in a case in which there is no input applied to the voltage control terminal 131, that is, there is no external control voltage.

For example, in a case in which a V_(Cc) voltage is increased by a specific cause as in a case in which a level of capacitance of the first capacitor part C_(C) having constant capacitance is changed, since a floating voltage applied to a low-side leg of the second capacitor part C_(V) is increased, the capacitance of the second capacitor part C_(V) is decreased, and thus, the V_(Cc) voltage may be always maintained as a constant and stable. In other words, the second capacitor part Cv varies to maintain the capacitance of the first capacitor part Cc. For example, in conventional MLCC, a level of capacitance of the MLCC is significantly affected depending on a change in temperature. However, in the multilayer capacitor 100, constant capacitance or constant bias voltage V_(Cc) of the multilayer capacitor is always implemented, as illustrated in the following Equation 2.

$\begin{matrix} {V_{C_{C}} = {\frac{C_{V}}{C_{V} + C_{C}} \cdot {VDD}}} & \left\lbrack {{Equation}\mspace{14mu} 2} \right\rbrack \end{matrix}$

Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, an insulating part 141 is disposed on a fourth surface 4 of a ceramic body 110 between the input and output terminals 132 and 133. The insulating part 141 improves insulation between the input and output terminals 132 and 133.

Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, a multilayer capacitor 100 is disposed on a board 200. The board 200 includes a circuit board 210 and first and second electrode pads 221 and 222. The multilayer capacitor 100 is mounted on the circuit board 210 so that the first surface 1 of the ceramic body 110 faces an upper surface of the circuit board 210.

The first and second electrode pads 221 and 222 are formed on the upper surface of the circuit board 210. The first and second electrode pads 221 and 222 are formed in locations on the upper surface of the circuit board 210 corresponding to the voltage control terminal 131 and the output terminal 133 of the multilayer capacitor, respectively. Therefore, the multilayer capacitor 100 is electrically connected to the circuit board 210 through solder 230 in a state in which the first band portion 131 b of the voltage control terminal 131 and the third band portion 133 b of the output terminal 133 are positioned to contact the first and second electrode pads 221 and 222, respectively.

As set forth above, according to one or more embodiments in the present disclosure, an arbitrary capacitance required in various applications is provided using a single component, and a flexible circuit with a high degree of freedom and a platform of a high-integration and high frequency power module is achieved.
